In the rest of the presentation:
a) We show evidence of the allegations madeabove.
b) we provide proof that non-linearities in thecombined function magnets of the AtR canactually cause these effects.
and:c) MOST IMPORTANT:
Non-linearities in the magnets cause a miss-match of the injected beam in RHIC with thecirculating beam

Formalism to calculate the beam emittance and the beam parameters at the beginning of the AtR line
(σ11)out = (R11)2(σ11)in + 2(R11) (R12)(σ12)in + (R12)2(σ22)in+ 2(R11) (R16)(σ16)in + 2(R12) (R16)(σ26)in + (R16)2(σ66)in
(σ33)out = (R33)2(σ33)in + 2(R33) (R34)(σ34)in + (R34)2(σ44)in + 2(R33) (R36)(σ36)in + 2(R34) (R36)(σ46)in + (R36)2(σ66)in
(σ11)out = (R11)2(σ11)in + 2(R11) (R12)(σ12)in + (R12)2(σ22)in(σ33)out = (R33)2(σ33)in + 2(R33) (R34)(σ34)in + (R34)2(σ44)in
If the Location and the strength of the magnets in the AtR Line are known the calculated beam parameters and beam emittance depend on the measured “sigma’s” of the beam at the location of the flags.
εx = [ (σ11)in(σ22)in - (σ12)in2 ]1/2
(βx) in= [(σ11)in] /[ (σ11)in(σ22)in - (σ12)in2 ]1/2=(σ11) in/εx
(αx)in= -[(σ12)in] /[ (σ11)in(σ22)in - (σ12)in2 ]1/2=-(σ12) in/εx

More details on What Prompted this Study
• Short term measurements yield same results on the calculated beam parameters from measured beam widths.
• Long term measurements may yield different results.
• The measured beam size depends on the location of the beam image on the flag. This affects the calculated emittance and beam parameters.

Possible explainations on what may affect the measured beam emittance and beam parameters.
• The beam trajectory in the AtR line, under the assumption that the magnets are not “linear”. Mainly the Combined Function dipole magnets.
• Random errors in the magnetic field settings of the AtR magnets
• Misalignment of the AtR Magnets.

Conclusions
• There is evidence of non-linearities in the combined function magnets of the AtR line– It affects the measured values of the beam parameters.
• Random magnets errors of ±0.5% in the settings of the AtR magnets does not affect significantly the measured values of the beam emittances and beam parameters.
• Same is true (no big effect) for magnet misalignments: – {Δx, Δy, ΔS} = ±0.75 [mm] – {Δθ, Δφ, Δψ} = ±0.75 [mrad]
